Verdict

Richard Hannon has made a terrific start to the season and he'll hope that OLYMPIC GLORY can add another Group 1 to his tally. The colt is no stranger to victory at Newbury having won the Greenham Stakes last season and, though there is a suspicion that he is better with cut in the ground, his presence has scared off much of the opposition. Top Notch Tonto put up a career best when second to the selection in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot last season. He is set to reoppose Tullius and Montiridge having met them in the bet365 Mile, and while the former was well on top on that occasion, he probably wouldn't be favoured by any significant drying of the ground. Verrazano was a dual Grade 1 winner on Dirt for Todd Pletcher and, on a belated Turf debut, he is a fascinating recruit to the Aidan O'Brien team. Epsom Derby seventh Chopin looks best of the rest.
